babylamblover I never thought I would love this but after watching with my little niece I adored it! The voice actors are extremely talented & the jokes are golden!
atta_ghoul-1 My 4 year-old and I love Nature Cat! It's great for him to learn so much about the outdoors, we are a family that loves to camp and spend time outside so this show really talks about the things we love. I love that it talks about recycling and preserving nature. And the fact that some of my favorite SNL alum are always on the show is just a bonus ;-)
DJ Dyspeptic I, too, find this series to be chock full of negatives. To start with, the show's creators resurrected the vocal mannerisms of Phil Silvers' Sgt. Bilko character for the lead character. That had already become a comedy cliché 50 years ago; did they have to dig up a totally tired trope that was irritating back when it was brand new? A good 20% of Nature Cat's dialogue is either "Tally Ho!" or "Onward and Yonward!" That gives you an immediate signpost of what the show is about. The badness extends to the rest of the cast also. One of the characters has a stereotypical "Southern Hick" accent. Umm, that's a really bad sign. I take it that this show is aimed at getting kids to get outside and interact directly with the natural world. The problem is, it is generally so dumb in tone that it's really hard to focus on what the subject matter might actually be. I can't wait to see the results of any objective testing that might in time be done to see how well it is succeeding at getting kids to turn off the TV and go outside.
jspeakstruth Nature Cat is silly with simple, educational topics/lessons for children (i.e. discovering different ways to help the environment and learning the difference between stalagmites and stalactites). My daughter enjoys it along with shows like Curious George and Meg+Cat. And just like no show is perfect, Nature Cat has it's quirky humor that might not suit everyone's style. However, I rather Nature Cat's humor over Curious George's consistency with the insulting comment, "You're pretty smart for a city kid." I cringe each time Bill says that to George, and it happens more often than not. That being said, Nature Cat is a show I feel safe showing my daughter and I enjoy seeing her use what she learned from the show. Good job PBS.
